Classmates of Garden Lake Elementary, where he attends school, and the surrounding community, have been trying to help him raise the roughly $68,000 to pay for the new legs.

A fundraiser brought in about $2,500 towards the goal earlier this month. Another $2,500 is reported to have been donated on his GoFundMe account. His family has set up an account at Wells Fargo Bank locations, but in total, it is still just a little over a third of the way to his ultimate goal.

Jaxson told FOX 5 News that he cannot wait for his new legs which he said will turn him into a cyborg.
